The Advertiser previously reported that police seemed to be cracking down on drug use in the town.

"There is lots of work ongoing to tackle drug supply and use within Redditch and information from the community forms a crucial part of this.
"So what I would encourage is for anyone with any concerns about drugs in their area to contact officers on 101 or the independent charity Crimestoppers anomyously on 0800 555 111."
